Key Attributes
About Hinoki, Cypress Seed
Fan-like sprays of glossy, dark green foliage, flattened and marked with subtle white lines underneath, give Hinoki Cypress its elegant evergreen look. Treasured in Japan for its fragrant wood and refined form, Chamaecyparis obtusa grows into a graceful, pyramidal tree with soft reddish bark. Growing from seed gives you plenty of plants for screens, specimens or bonsai, so you can line a property border, feature a single tree or start shaping a miniature.
